Pink Peppercorn Chocolate Cake with Ganache

By Well Seasoned

Ingredients:

  • 8 oz. Dark Chocolate (78% cocoa), chopped into small pieces
  • 1/2 cup Sugar
  • 1/2 tsp Vanilla Paste
  • 1 cup Flour
  • 2 tbsp freshly crushed Pink Peppercorn
  • 4 oz softened Butter
  • 7 Eggs, yolks & whites separated
  • For the ganache:
  • 6 oz. Semi Sweet Chocolate
  • 1/2 cup Heavy Cream
  • 2 tbsp crushed Pink Peppercorns (as desired for garnish)

Instructions:

  • Heat oven to 325 degrees. Grease and flour a round cake pan.
  • Melt the chocolate in double broiler and add 2 tbsp of crushed pink peppercorns.
  • Mix the butter, vanilla, and sugar until light and creamy. Then add the egg yolks, one at a time, and then the melted chocolate.
  • Sift the flour, and add it to the chocolate mixture.
  • Whisk the egg whites until you have stiff peaks, and gently fold into the chocolate mixture. Pour the mix into the baking pan and bake for about 45 minutes or until set. Top with the ganache.
  • Cool, slice and serve.
  • For the ganache:
  • Combine 6 oz chocolate with heavy cream in the double boiler and stir until the chocolate had fully melted into the cream and the ganache is silky smooth.
  • Remove from heat and cool slightly.
  • Pour the ganache over the cooled cake and garnish with a few more of the freshly crushed pink peppercorns.
